Update frome win8 to win 8.1 error oxc1900101 - ox30018

I have purchased at Toshiba laptop including win8.
After release, I installed win 8.1 easily, following common procedure. It worked perfectly and I was quite happy with it.
Due to some hardware issues, I turned the laptop in for repair.
The motherboard was replaced with a new one, and win 8 was reinstalled when I got the laptop back.
Obviously, I wanted to update to 8.1 once again.
This is where all my problems started.
Apparently the update is being installed, but at 95% of the install process done, it stops and reinstall win8 again.
The error codes oxc1900101 - ox30018 are displayed on the screen.
I have now spent months reading on that same problem online, and tried a lot the proposed solution, but with no luck.
I found many many people who had trouble updating, so clearly, there IS a problem with win 8.1
I have called Microsoft support, who said that Toshiba was responsible.
Toshiba says to contact Microsoft...
Microsoft wants me to pay 99$ for support, so they will fix it.
But it is supposed to be a FREE and very easy update - why would I pay for that?
I have tried to update drivers, clean start, reinstalled win8 a lot of times, uninstalled anti virus and anti malware, went into bios and disabled usb3, used lan cable instead of wi-fi and many more things, but the same error code still appears every time.
I really hope someone can help me - PLEASE PLEASE!
I don't think it is fair, that I have to buy a new license for win8.1

H Dennis,
When you roll back to the Windows 8, did it work fine? Was it activated? OEM's license is binding with motherboard.
If you change motherboard, it will not be activated.
Please contact Toshiba to activate it. Then try to upgrade.
The most cause is the hardware compatibility.This guide will be help you check if your computer meet its requirement:

  • MMS Update from 3.1 - Unable To Restore Error - Phone Dead.

    Ok, I just tried to do the MMS update from 3.1 and now when I plug it in it says that it needs to be restored and all data will be lost. Before trying to do the MMS update downloaded latest iTunes, then plugged in the phone and did the download and update. Now I try to do the restore but it errors before complete every time.
    What do I do know got to have this thing working and I readlly don't want toose all my data?

    I had the same issue. I have a 16GB 3G. I tried everything Apple suggested and then some. I had to download the 3.0.1 firmware and restore from that. I even took it to the Apple store after I put 3.0.1 back on and they had the same problem. My phone is out of warranty, so my only options are pay Apple for a new phone or live with 3.0.1 without being able to upgrade. This is the option that I chose. If your phone is under warranty, take it to Apple, they will replace it. I would not suggest restoring the firmware if you are still under warranty.
    If you choose to restore using 3.0.1, just download the firmware from the internet and then hold the Shift key while clicking on the Restore button in iTunes. That worked for me so that at least my phone is working and is no longer in paper weight mode.
    Sorry, I wish I had better news, but at least that will get you up and running again. I have noticed that the hard reset has worked for some people on here, (hold down the home and sleep buttons for about 10 seconds or so) but that would not work with my phone. I tried everything. I tried the update on four different computers both Mac and Windows. (Make that 5, the Apple store was #5). I tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes on two of the computers. I tried using an old version of iTunes as well as the updated version of iTunes. I tried everything, the only thing that worked was going back to 3.0.1. There is actually a post on here that describes how to get MMS on 3.0.1 without upgrading to 3.1. Since my phone is out of warranty, I have nothing to lose.
    Good luck...

  • When I try to update from the app store I get error C08229p

    Hello,
    When I try to update from the app store on my iMac I get an error. An error has occured cannot connect to software update server (C08229p). Does anyone know how to fix this. The computer is connected to the internet. I have tried to boot in safe mode but still get the error. I can't update anything. Can anybody help?
    Thank's

    Triple-click the word "telnet" in the line below on this page to select the whole line:
    telnet swscan.apple.com 443
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You should almost instantly get three lines of output below what you entered, the last of which is this:
    Escape character is '^]'.
    If there's no output within ten seconds, consider that a failure. Otherwise, please post the output in a reply. You can then quit Terminal.

    Client is manually install, unmanaged, no SystemCenter server.

    I know this is an old post, but I've seen this several times on client pc's.  Seems to happen only with .NET updates, it'll install one, then fail the rest.  Windowsupdate.log file shows   WARNING: Failed to delete old install directory
    at C:\windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download\Install. This may block future installs.   It seems like concurrent installs fail because of this folder, and like the OP, when I reboot, that folder is gone and I can install the next update, which fails
    the remaining updates, and then we repeat the process.  This actually happened to me today new pc build, installed .net 4.0, .NET updates fail with error code 80070005. Yes, I'm logged in with an admin account.   Anyone have any suggestions? 
    I can post log files or whatever if needed.

  • When I try to update from CS5 menu,  I get an error that they did not install

    I am running CS5 on Windows 8.1.  When I try to update from CS5 menu, it appears updates are downloading, but then I get an error that they did not install (no error number), and contact customer support.  When I click on that I get a discussion about incorret serial number.  I deactivated, then reactivated, get same results.

    Yay!   Finally got it to work.
    Deactivated CS5 and uninstalled.  Then reinstalled.  Downloaded and installed AAM (took several tries before finally got it to work properly).  Then download the updates individually and finally got to install using AAM.

  • TS3694 How do I update my older Ipod touch from 2.2 to 4.2? When I try to update from Itunes I get a -1 error code

    Thanks for any help you can provid.e

    A -1 error code often indicates a hardware problem, but it can also indicate an inability of iTunes to connect to the update server due to being blocked by security software on your computer. For help with that possibility, see:
    Troubleshooting security software issues
    If that fails, try updating from another computer. If that still fails, your iPod may have a hardware failure.
    Note that if you have a first-generation iPod touch, it can only be updated to iOS 3.1.3, and that update is not free.

  • Update from 2.1 to 2.2 Error (14)

    In the process of updating an IPhone 3G from version 2.1 to 2.2 (the phone was only 4 hours old) the process failed with the following error:
    The iPhone "iPhone" could not be restored. An unknown error occured (14).
    I have used the same PC, same iTunes (ver. 8.0.2.20) to update at least 8 other phones with no problem. I have spent over 5 hours on the phone with Apple support doing the same, redundant thing over and over again to no avail. The nearest iPhone store is 2 hours away. Does anyone know how to fix this? I tried everything that I saw on google (documented below) and with Apple support....
    Thanks in advance, dartinian
    steps taken:
    deleted update download (google for location)
    put phone into restore mode (google for steps on how to do this)
    tried several different computers / user accounts / update downloads...
    tried vista, xp, and also the 64 bit versions...

    dartinian,
    In my experience, this article contains the best troubleshooting steps to try, in order:
    Update and restore error messages on iPhone and iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275
    If those steps do not resolve the issue (it sounds like you have tried them already), it may be best to take the iPhone into an Apple Store if possible. They can evaluate the phone itself for a failure, and offer an in warranty repair on the spot if need be.

  • Error when updating from FM 8.0p266

    Hi,
    I can't seem to get patches for FrameMaker 8 to be installed.
    I have not been working in FrameMaker for a couple of months, but now I will start doing some changes for my templates and would like to use the latest version on FrameMaker.
    I have version 8.0p266.
    When trying to use Updates from the menu I get an error.
    I get the same error when going to Adobes pages and try to bring down patches directly from there.
    The error I get is:
    You do not have correct version of FM install on your system. This patch installer will work only with Version 8b266 build.
    Patch installer will quit now.
    I have tried the patch 8p273.
    What can I do?
    Grateful for answers.
    Regards
    Monica Svanlind

    I finally managed to install the updates, by logging out, logging in as administrator, re-installing the updates in order by executing the update files directly (double-click on them in Windows Explorer), and then logging out and logging back in as myself.
    FrameMaker installation and maintenance seems to work best (only if?) you do it as the administrator user (which is possibly a bug in itself). If you're running the update from within FrameMaker itself, you are unlikely to be logged in as administrator.
    The Frame support desk told me to uninstall and reinstall the whole package and updates. In the end I didn't have to do this. I don't know if it would have worked anyway for my system unless performed as administrator, which they and all documentation didn't mention.

  • I am upgrading a old power mac g4 need update 9.1 and the system gives error message when i try to export it?

    i am upgrading from 9.0.4 to 9.1.0 in the order that I am instructed when trying to get free update from the apple site i get error message..what gives with that am i supposed to just stay in os9?

    9.1 is helpful for some application compatibility, but more so for running Mac OS 9 within Classic environment in Mac OS X.    Classic though is not as good as booting into 9 directly, as many drivers are not accessible to the Classic environment in X.   You can find the newer 9 updates if you follow this tip.
